"General, the matter is settled!"
Zhong Hui stroked his short beard and spoke with great confidence.
Zhong Hui was a tall man with a handsome appearance. When he sat there, he was so imposing that even the sick Sima Master was outdone by him.
There are many documents on the case beside Master Sima.
These are letters from Luoyang and the imperial palace.
The entire Sima family has Master Sima as its core, and everyone absolutely obeys his orders.
As a result, the whole world's affairs fell on this patient.
Since Cao Fang was deposed, the state affairs suddenly began to increase, and Sima Shi had to deal with more and more things.
The smarter a person is, the less he trusts his ministers and always feels that they can't handle things well.
Zhuge Liang is like this, and Sima Shi is also like this.
Sima Zhao has written to Master Sima four times to inform him of what happened in the temple.
If his letters are organized in plain language, there is only one sentence.
elder brother! ! Help! ! The wealthy people in the DPRK have begun to behave differently than human beings! !
Under this situation, Sima Zhao could not trust anyone, not even the confidants around him. After all, these confidants were also from aristocratic families. They blindly asked for benefits and did not care about the interests of the temple at all.
He could only place his hope on his brother, hoping that this omnipotent brother could solve his confusion.
Master Sima tapped his finger on the wooden case beside him.
"Shiji, I'm no longer worried about Zhuge Dan. What I'm worried about is the vicious dogs in the temple."
"These vicious dogs must be fed sooner or later."
"However, how to feed them is an issue that needs to be taken seriously."
"They start barking for bones, which is not a good thing."
Zhong Hui is still very clear about things in the temple.
He laughed, "General, maybe I am one of the many evil dogs in the temple... Shouldn't you consider these things in private?"
Zhong Hui grew up with Sima Shi and Sima Zhao and had a good friendship with them.
Even next to Master Sima, this man was greatly favored. He even dared to joke with Master Sima!
This is something even Sima Zhao would not dare to do.
Zhong Hui comes from a famous family, has outstanding talents, is arrogant, and despises others. Even Master Sima indulges him, which makes him more unruly and leaves some hidden dangers...
However, Master Sima still had a straight face. This man seemed to have no sense of humor. He said seriously: "You are not a vicious dog."
Zhong Hui pursed his lips, "I was joking with the general... forget it."
"Then what are you going to do, General?"
"I'm going to ask you to give me some advice."
"good idea!"
Zhong Hui said and then began to think deeply.
"These people are not easy to deal with. The general is different from Emperor Taizu in the past. During Emperor Taizu's period, no one dared to say that he and Emperor Taizu were ministers of the same dynasty, and they never regarded him as their colleague. Treat him either as a national traitor or as a lord."
"Although the general is powerful, in the eyes of the temple ministers, he is just a minister of the same dynasty, and has not yet reached the point where he can become the lord."
Zhong Hui said it very straightforwardly and openly, with no intention of hiding it at all.
Master Sima was calm and expressionless. Obviously, this was not the first time they talked about these things.
Zhong Hui continued: "This will happen sooner or later. His Majesty just brought this matter a few steps forward."
"In today's world, you must rely on your country to seek dynasty! You must rely on your soldiers to hunt your country!"
"And if the general wants to take that step, he must first feed these vicious dogs."
"If a vicious dog doesn't have enough to eat, it will bite its owner."
"General, it seems that some things need to be advanced."
Master Sima's face was very ugly.
"This is a bit too eager. If we feed them too full now, what will we do in the future? If the vicious dogs are full, they will no longer be willing to hunt with their owners."
Zhong Hui said calmly: "We have discussed this issue a long time ago. Changing the current nobility system will be used to feed everyone and make them willing to sincerely assist the general... If it weren't for your illness, it might have been implemented long ago. .”
"Now is not the time to seek for the country, but there is no problem in reforming the nobility system and winning over the nobles."
"I understand the general's concerns."
"However, I feel that if this policy must be implemented, it is best for you to implement it."
"Why?"
"General Zhengxi is also an outstanding person, but he is not as talented as the general... Changing his title and feeding the wolves will definitely cause a lot of problems. You can solve them, but he may not."
Zhong Hui did not avoid the issue of successor at all.
Sima Shi is not in good health and may die at any time. Sima You is too young. Even if Sima Shi is given another ten years, Sima You will still be young...Will Sima Zhao succeed Sima Shi? What is suspenseful is who will succeed Sima Zhao, Sima You or Sima Yan.
Zhong Hui is very close to the two brothers and is not afraid of causing any fear at all.
Master Sima knew very well that Zhong Hui was telling the truth.
The biggest shortcoming of my brother is that he is easy to get into trouble... he lacks restraint and has some blind self-confidence.
Sima Yi is a cautious person to the core, and Master Sima's forbearance skills are not weaker than those of his father. However, when it comes to Sima Zhao, he is not very good at hiding things.
Moreover, Master Sima thought that his younger brother was a bit weak and had a weak ear.
Of course, this is because Master Sima doesn't know about Sima Yan in history, otherwise he would really understand what it means to have soft ears... If he knew, he might strangle Sima Yan to death now, and kill the Jiachong clan by the way. .
"No, we still can't rush. We have to find other ways to suppress it."
Master Sima still refused and was not persuaded by Zhong Hui.
Zhong Hui felt helpless and said again: "General, I have already said that this Your Majesty will be a big disaster. He has just arrived in Luoyang and caused such a thing. Do you still want to keep him?"
"Guanqiu Jian."
Master Sima's answer was quite unique.
easy to understand.
Zhong Hui nodded, "In that case, let me take care of this matter. I will shut up those people. As for you, you should go back and rest first."
"The doctor said that your eye disease cannot be delayed any longer and must be operated on."
"The famous doctor from Liang State the day before yesterday, do you know how scared he was? He said to me, the pain you are suffering now is as if someone stabbed your eyes with a knife. He really can't understand how you endure such pain. Silently..."
"He has seen many people suffering from eye diseases. Most of them cry out in pain and cannot bear it...except the general."
Zhong Hui shook his head, "Don't delay any longer. The world cannot live without a general. Just accept the treatment with peace of mind."
Master Sima still had a straight face, and when he was about to give an order, a soldier came in to report it.
Soon, the messenger from Luoyang handed the letter to Master Sima.
"What?!"
Master Sima's expression changed at that moment, and he stood up, filled with murderous aura.
Zhong Hui was stunned, quickly took the letter from his hand and started reading it.
This is a letter from Sima Zhao. Sima Zhao wrote to inform him that thieves in Luoyang were claiming that Zhuge Dan betrayed Xia Houxuan and conspired with the general Sima Shi in the Liang Kingdom...
Zhong Hui's eyes widened, and he looked at Master Sima beside him in shock.
Master Sima trembled all over and covered his left eye in pain.
"ah!!!!"
Zhong Hui was frightened and shouted quickly, "Healer!! Healer!!"
He was about to rush out, but Master Sima's bone-like hand grabbed him.
Zhong Hui looked at Master Sima, who slowly raised his head.
The sarcoma in the left eye seemed to burst, leaving a trail of blood.
The blood flowed down his face, and Master Sima stared at Zhong Hui in front of him with his intact right eye.
This look is really terrifying.
"Send someone to stop Zhuge Liang."
"Prepare the carriage, I want to return to Luoyang."
"Return to Luoyang as quickly as possible!"
Zhong Hui couldn't bear to look at the blood stains on his face, "Don't think about it! I'll call the doctor first!!"
“Do as I say!!!”
"I...only..."
Zhong Hui left in a hurry. Master Sima looked straight ahead. A blood stain flowed from his left eye, making his appearance even more ferocious. He just stared ahead, and the murderous intention in his heart could no longer be endured, like a head. A beast that chooses and devours people.
